edward bairstow - the oak and the ash lyrics

Loading...

a north country maid up to london had strayed
although with her nature it did not agree
she wept and she sighed, and so bitterly she cried
“how i wish once again in the north i could be!
oh the oak and the ash, and the bonny ivy tree
they flourish at home in my own country

“while sadly i roam i regret my dear home
where lads and young lasses are making the hay
the merry bells ring and the birds sweetly sing
the meadows are pleasant and maidens are g+y
oh the oak and the ash, and the bonny ivy tree
they flourish at homе in my own country

“no doubt, did i please, i could marry with easе
for where maidens are fair many lovers will come
but the one whom i wed must be north country bred
and tarry with me in my north country home
oh the oak and the ash, and the bonny ivy tree
they flourish at home in my own country.”
